Keine Ahnung

What a warm welcome Wet luggage and dry humor When I smuggle rain through customs in the summer I'm packin' it in sheets Fit for a California king Who wears a cracked crown And ponders his sovereignty in defeat Color-coded, coordinated, collated Carriage to ex-commie haven Syncopated steps with wet feet West end of the East Won't need your umbrella They said the weather was fair But keine Ahnung Old friends in new places Air dry in confined spaces Mind all the pretty faces I'm bound to swap 'em out With a template of my muse That one I stole from the clouds I thought I won that round Look at me now It's kinda funny how You put your history on display In the most covetous way But who am I to say? I paid to play: The walk around, my ear-buds in, the camera out I'm acting like I care about it Elevating culture Or, so I thought Best photo in my series has some ass in the shot Just keep on saying, "Interesting," even though you know it's not Y'all really love Babylon? Well, keine Ahnung My place on Earth is ill-defined I'm searching all the time But I don't know (Keine Ahnung) How to be in this place It feels so wrong to carry on Without you by my side But no idea (Keine Ahnung) If I'll see you again Guten morgen! Pick your poison Outside, it's damp Inside, it's pouring Coffee, beer, or cigarettes How about all three? Unholy trinity Eschew divinity Trade some infinity for cynical proclivity Bypass security and wander the vicinity Observe the work of modernized nobility Just look at me with my new tote bag Reichstag Went stag, now I fawn for a doe No matter how much I gorge This feral feast will not slow The hunger goes where I go (The hunger grows as I grow) I tried to lead the hunt with just the tip of my nose I never knew and it shows But, even so I went wall to wall And hit the ceiling hard enough to fall Got floored just for standing tall So now I'm forced to crawl You might've ripped me off and kept one half But sellouts with no market need the cash A sunflower or a rose - all one Can't pick a flower with a rotten green thumb No place planting a garden I guess I'm still on the hunt Denial runs in the blood But keine Ahnung My place on Earth is ill-defined I'm searching all the time But I don't know (Keine Ahnung) How to be in this place It feels so wrong to carry on Without you by my side But no idea (Keine Ahnung) If I'll see you again
